Chapter One Milly Im late for dinner again, but this time its not my fault. Theres a mansplainer in my way. Mildred? Thats a grandmothers name. But not even a cool grandmother. He says it like he thinks hes being clever. Like in all my seventeen years, no one else has ever noticed that my name isnt the fashionable kind of classic. It took a Wall Street investment banker with slicked-back hair and a pinkie ring to render that particular bit of social commentary. I sip the dregs of my seltzer. I was, in fact, named after my grandmother, I say. Im at a steak house in midtown at six oclock on a rainy April evening, doing my best to blend with the happy hour crowd. Its a game my friends and I play sometimes; we go to restaurant bars so we dont have to worry about getting carded at the door. We wear our simplest dresses and extra makeup. We order seltzer water with lime--in a small glass, please, Im not that thirsty--and gulp it down until theres almost nothing left. Then we wait to see if anyone offers to buy us a drink. Somebody always does. Pinkie Ring smiles, his teeth almost fluorescent in the dim light. He must take his whitening regimen very seriously. I like it. Quite a contrast for such a beautiful young woman. He edges closer, and I catch a headache-inducing whiff of strong cologne. You have a very interesting look. Where are you from? Ugh. Thats marginally better than the What are you? question I get sometimes, but still gross. New York, I say pointedly. You? I mean originally
